I am really confused between staff offers at both these places (~600k without sign on), based on my interview experience and team conversations roblox slightly edges out, however I think longer term stripe might have more upside but I was concerned with recent blind posts about stripe wlb & perf culture. Can anyone who is in stripe/roblox provide insights in to their experience so far? #stripe #roblox #facebook #google #uber tc 550, 5b yoe > 10
I’ve interviewed both for staff at both (for very similar teams). Stripe people seemed way more genuine and it felt like RBLX people were a bit pretentious. But YMMV. WLB seemed the same at both places. Worth noting getting a promo is probably gonna be also equally hard at both.

Tc breakdown
Roblox. I haven’t experienced such a people centric company yet.
How
Not going IPO doesn’t mean it have higher upside. Given recent fintech frenzy, Stripe is richly valued as a private company. Also the one-year RSU policy is disingenuous to get benefit of employees
Stripe can offer more than 600k
Upside: I don’t think you will have a definite decision given the size of teo companies but stripe rsu policy basically killed the potential; WLB: roblox much better; industry: fintech vs metaverse, the former is more established and thus safer; the latter is more fun but risker
